Launch of 20th Commemoration of 1994 Rwanda Genocide

“Kwibuka20”, a series of observances marking 20 years since the genocide in Rwanda, was launched in New York at an event co-organized by Permanent Mission of Rwanda to the UN and the UN Department of Public Information. “Kwibuka” means “remember” in Kinyarwanda.

Gerald Caplan (right), academic and author of the report, “Rwanda: the Preventable Genocide”, speaks at the event. At left is John Ashe, President of the sixty-eighth session of the General Assembly. Also pictured, Noel Sinclair, Deputy Chef de Cabinet to the President of the General Assembly.
